Relieve that stress with chocolate! :) |
When life gives us lemons, as often it does, don’t be
content making lemonade. Throw those sour bastards back and demand chocolate!
Don’t give into the stress and pressures going on that make
us say, “I can write later.” Put your boxing gloves on and fight through it.
Duck life’s left hook and counter with a powerful uppercut by finishing off
that next chapter.
Quitting a current project or giving up even temporarily is
not an option. When the writing gets tough the writer needs to kick ass. We
change goals and pound out pages of words through writer’s block, character
frustrations, plot holes, appointments, and real world tasks screaming to be done.
Whatever is attempting to hold us back from our story we will fight back.
This week down that pot of coffee, eat the whole bag of
peanut butter M&M’s, order take out, or duct tape the kids to the wall.
Okay, maybe not that last one, though you have to admit some days it’s tempting.
Just don’t lose heart, or give in to that urge to say, "well, I’ll make it next
round." There is still plenty of time this round to make our quarter goals. I’m
ready, how about you?
Goals for this week:
Keep up with Blogging from A to Z (got caught up again yay!
)
Get 2 chapters done on WIP
Get rid of at least 1 box of junk and clutter
Never give up! Never surrender!
